don't be so sure.
Where do you think those will be sold when the local lbs is out of business? Several hundred bike shops went out of business last year. As with all things, they will go online, then be found in whatever location dorel believes will result in the largest sales. Do you the hostility here toward bike shops? We are an endangered species. Many bike related companies, as well as our biggest us distributor, are quietly aligning their platforms for direct sales. When that happens, and i feel it's fairly inevitable, the big shops of today will suddenly be focused on repair and niche sales that don't work well online. I don't want to be partner to my own demise, and since dorel has made it clear
they wish to compete with us, there will be no cannondales sold here.
